    Hi,

    I have a plugin that fired when the record is deactivated.


    Below is the code -

        if (context.InputParameters.Contains("EntityMoniker") && context.InputParameters["EntityMoniker"] is EntityReference)
                    {
                         EntityReference EntityRef = (EntityReference)context.InputParameters["EntityMoniker"];

        //code continues

    }

    And i have registered the plugin on SetState and SetStateDynamicEntity steps.

    The plugin fires when the record is directly activated or deactivated. However when the 2 records are merged, the other record gets deactivated, at this point, the deactivation plugin does not work.



    Kindly suggest.

    During a merge, the deactivation of the subordinate record is an internal operation, which I expect is why it does not cause your plugin to fire.

    I expect you'll also have to register your plugin on the Merge message. You'll probably also have to change your code a little to read the primary key of the record to deactivate from the SubordinateId InputParameter
